Product Description
The rise in demand for larger, flatter TV screens has created a move to more high quality, well designed speaker systems that compliment the screen in both aesthetics and sound quality. The looks must be slim-line, long speaker enclosures that are in proportion to the screen and have a rich expansive sound that enhances viewing pleasure.

I recently bought this speaker system along-with Onkyo 606 and am quite happy with the configuration. The speakers are very solidly built, and are great sounding. KEF supplies wall mounts which look great with my LCD tv, and saves money in buying stands.
Regarding the negatives: I wish the speakers were bi-amped. Since it is a 5.1 system, if at least two speakers were bi-amped, I could have used my receiver to the fullest with better sound. The manual is horrible, and it is quite hard to figure out how to use the wall mounts (hint: you need to unscrew the hinge in the back of the speaker, revert it and screw it back in). KEF also does not supply any wires. Somewhat strangely, KEF supplies sub-woofer power adapters for UK (and a few other countries) which isn’t needed at all. These speakers are more expensive than KEF 3005 system. However, they have a slightly smaller 0.6 inch tweeter mounted in the center of a 3-inch woofer instead of the 0.75 inch tweeter mounted in the 4.25-inch woofer for 3005.
None of these are concerns though. These are great sounding speakers with crystal clear clarity, and excellent looks.
